In the matrix completion problem, we have a matrix $M$ where we are only given a small number of its entries and our goal is to fill in the rest of the entries. While this problem is impossible to solve for general matrices, it can be solved if $M$...

Let $G$ be a compact group and let $f_{ij}\in L_2(G)$ be bandlimited functions. We define the Non-Unique Games (NUG) problem as finding $g_1\ldots,g_n\in G$ to minimize $\sum_{i,j=1}^n f_{ij}(g_i g_j^{-1})$. We devise a relaxation of the NUG problem...

The fall workshop focused on core questions of homological mirror symmetry, and how it interacted with the more general picture of mirror symmetry.

The workshop was organized by Paul Seidel (MIT) and Nick Sheridan (IAS).

One of the main ideas that comes up in the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem is a way of "counting" 2-dimensional Galois representations over $\mathbb Q$ with certain prescribed properties. We discuss the problem of counting other types of Galois...

I will discuss Gamma conjecture and its proof in some examples (such as complete intersections in toric varieties) using mirror symmetry. Specifically, I will talk about the B-model $D$-module associated with a LG model, Dubrovin conjecture, and...
